One of the world’s most iconic motor racing venues, Brands Hatch plays host to some of the most prestigious events in motorsports, including the British Superbike and Formula Two Championship. Brands Hatch is located 20 miles outside central London.

First built in 1971 by the UK’s first manufacturer of racing vehicles, the Lola T212 has consistently placed in top competitions. It sports a monocoque chassis, where the shell of the car carries the stress loads instead of an internal frame, and a four-cylinder Ford engine mounted in the rear.

Neil finished fifth in the race and is preparing his team to take on the grueling LeMans Endurance Classic early next year. In between races, Neil has been jamming with his band, Travis, and recording material for a new album.
